I would imagine that without that feature they will struggle to sell the format.

I'm wondering how old the very old TV actually is?

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Well probably only really old by tech standards.  It's a big CRT lump I took over from my sister when she got a flatscreen TV. And it was second-hand back then. Well there's Resident Evil: Retribution for a start.

I know it's got Milla in it, but she's made other films!

Well I've got Zoolander and I've seen Fifth Element and none of her other movies interest me.

Are you sure you're not some sort of masochist?

Fifth Element is a brilliant film.

Not sure I'd go that far. It's not as bad as the slagging it got at release and it looks great but there are problems too (*cough*Tricky*cough*). Well worth the two hours of your time but it's no Demolition Man.

3D TV is dead, replaced by 4K, says BBC controller http://www.techradar.com/news/televisio ... er-1125721He's probably right, but I really don't see Google being able to make a dent in the schedules

I think that the media business are worried about any of the new rumoured TV services from Apple or Google to be quite frank.
4k will be a problem for consumers. What about their DVD and Blu ray collections? Will they opt for another media format or simply stick with what they have. I might mean that streaming becomes the only option and that depends on the broadband backbone. It could go any direction.

4K will probably come to BDXL which does (just) have sufficient capacity, and likely there will be some cross-compatibility: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray_Disc
